There was just too much sociolinguistics (and phonology), so we've split up with the Phono Group this semester :( On the up side, this means that more students will get time to share their work and solicit ideas. The socio group is meeting on Tuesdays, 12:30-2:00pm in B-442 Wells. (Note, B-442 is not the lab -- it's got more seats, isn't usually as hot, and it has speakers). Everyone is welcome to join us. Bring your lunch if you like.

There will also be bi-weekly meetings of the general extender project group on Tuesdays, 2:00-3:30pm in B-401 Wells (the actual socio lab), starting Jan 19. We're a small group actively working on some re-analysis of existing data. Feel free to come and sit in on our discussions, and to get involved if you become interested.

The IHELP group is also meeting intermittently this semester as we write up our invited Penn Working Papers in Linguistics paper, and prepare for the final NSF report due in May this year.
